Las Vegas - Comcast Corp Chief Executive Brian Roberts dazzled a cable industry audience on Tuesday, showing off for the first time in public new technology that enabled a data download speed of 150 megabits per second, or roughly 25 times faster than today's standard cable modems.

Sounds kewl, but unfortunately, it's not for us...

Is this what the science section is for?

 

[Dude111]

I dont see that modem EVER BEING USED..

The reason?

1) $$$$ -- These companies would end up charging you WAY MORE than you could afford.. (Even if they could supply it)

Why would anyone want something that fast??

Right now i am @ 5M down and thats seems good enough!!

Geez
